Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Dexter
The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.9/10.
Against the Washtenaw County average of 5.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 2.0 points. Running hot, supply constraint reads 8.8/10.
Average gross rent is $2,221, 26% above the Dexter average. Cost burden runs 42% here against 46.5% across Washtenaw County. Adults with no health insurance runs 3.2% against 11.3% nationally.
Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.7% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
Only 7% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.1/10.
Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $156,771, an unusually wide affordability cushion.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
